Sowing Principles (SP)
The Sowing Principles Project (SP) has existed since 2009 and aims to restore values in the lives of students in the public education system. Through activities and lectures tailored to the local reality, biblical principles that emphasize the value of life — many of which have been lost over time — can be rekindled.
It is a joy to witness social transformation in the lives of each young person! Together with teachers from each school served, SP facilitators help students understand how important they are to their families, schools and society.
The demand for this type of student support in public schools has been increasing. However, with the implementation of SP, school dropout rates have decreased, school governance has improved, and the impact of these actions can be felt within churches—especially at Acts of Justice Church, which is committed to caring for and discipling these young people.

Amazon Workshop
Here is a space to have fun while also producing!
Traditionally, the peoples of the Amazon are excellent in craftsmanship and manual arts. At the Amazon Workshop, indigenous and riverside students take classes focused on entrepreneurship, aiming to perfect their techniques and ensure future support in the missionary field. The pieces produced during their study time are donated to the Vale Store, which sells them and allocates 100% of the proceeds to building churches in the most remote fields, by the indigenous pastors themselves. This way, each student has the opportunity to witness the beginning, middle, and end of the production process, which transforms materials from nature into improvements for their communities.
At the Workshop, clothing pieces are also made from donated fabrics and scraps that come to us, and these will be delivered to communities in need of clothing. In the interior of the Amazon, it is common to find places where residents only have one set of clothes, which they wear while bathing and let dry on their bodies in the sun. You can imagine that after a year, the condition of hygiene and care for these items is already greatly deteriorated. We want to bring dignity to these people, and this is why the Amazon Workshop exists.

Amazon Valley
Football School
Iranduba is a municipality with high rates of violence, drug use, and vulnerability. The urban reality is similar to that of many municipalities in the Amazon, where vulnerable youth fill the streets, yearning to find something more. The dream of football is common. Through it, the Amazon Valley Football School has been attracting dozens of young people every week for sports training and opportunities for Christian discipleship.
The rule is clear: no bad language in the game! The yellow card and its red friend have been working with principles of good manners, while the coaches have been tough on school conduct and good family relations.
Rescuing young people and helping them dream again is about showing Jesus to those who have sought Him on the streets. Today, there is a need for more volunteer coaches who are willing to dedicate themselves part-time or full-time to this project.
